So where were you before he left, huh? 

Haha

“I’m here for Barbecue” was a very unfortunate choice of words.

Apparently…

It’s like a mouse visiting a cat named MouseTrap.. What on earth would give you the idea that..

That’s a fair point.

LMFAOO! Were those clicks worth it?

We’re going to say no.

Can we arrange for this to happen to more YouTube “stars?”

All of them, perhaps?

Big Facts.

For dinner.

One has to wonder, do they still dress for dinner in Haiti?

Er … wait …

Okay, we have to be serious for a moment. We’ve had lots of fun, but this writer would like to ask anyone willing to do so to pray for his safe return so that we have a chance to make fun of him again.
